CONWAY, Ark. – Central Arkansas men's soccer was rewarded by the ASUN after dominating FGCU 6-0 Saturday night. Midfielder
Kyle Schwartz was named the ASUN Player of the Week after his night, his first weekly award of the season.
Schwartz earned the nod after contributing two of the six goals Saturday night. Already up 2-0 after a pair of own goals, Schwartz powered home the first goal of the night actually scored by a Bear, tracking a ball coming out of a scrum in the box and blasting it into the back of the net to push the lead to 3-0. He then followed it up with an assist on the final goal of the night, combining with
Vaclav Kozeny to find
Michael Walenchok for the 6-0 finish.
The three-point night added to Schwartz's season, now with five points on the year. The goal was his first of the season, and his assist was his third of the year. He now ranks third on the team in points, adding to a team that has gotten contributions from all over the roster this season.
Schwartz and the Bears are on the road to No. 1 SMU on Tuesday, kicking off at 6 p.m. in Dallas. Next Sunday marks Senior Day for the Bears, who host Queens for the final home regular season match for the Bears. Kickoff on Sunday is set for 7 p.m.
